At present, processing ways for a terminal device with multiple communication cards are mainly based on implementation of terminal manufacturers, which may lead to many different terminal behaviors and processing ways, such as dual sim single standby, dual sim dual standby single pass, dual sim dual standby dual pass, etc., and may also lead to some problems, such as collision of paging moments of different communication cards, which may lead to the terminal device with multiple communication cards being unable to receive or miss paging signaling sent by a base station, and thus a service cannot be established. In another case, when a connected communication card 1 (SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) #1) in the terminal device with multiple communication cards is communicating with a network #1, an idle SIM #2 receives paging signaling sent by a network #2, but the SIM #2 is not sure whether to respond to the paging or not. In another case, when the paging signaling sent by the base station does not include a paging cause, the SIM #2 will be unable to learn paging capability of the base station, hence will be unable to carry out subsequent actions.
Aiming at the above problems, the present disclosure provides a method and an apparatus for distinguishing paging capability of a base station, and a communication device.
The terminal device can be a device that provides voice and/or data connectivity to users, a hand-held device with wireless connection function, or other processing devices connected to a wireless modem, etc. In different systems, a name of the terminal device may be different. For example, in a 5G system, the terminal device may be called a UE (User Equipment). Wireless terminal devices can communicate with one or more CNs (Core Networks) via a RAN (Radio Access Network). Wireless terminal devices can be mobile terminal devices, such as mobile phones (or “cellular” phones) and computers with mobile terminal devices, such as portable, pocket-sized, hand-held, computer-built or vehicle-mounted mobile devices, which exchange voice and/or data with the wireless access network.
For example, the terminal device can be PCS (Personal Communication Service) telephone, cordless telephone, SIP (Session Initiated Protocol) telephone, WLL (Wireless Local Loop) station, PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) and other devices. A wireless terminal device can also be called a system, a subscriber unit, a subscriber station, a Mobile station, a mobile platform, a remote station, an access point, a remote a terminal, an access terminal, a user terminal, a user agent, and a user device, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure.
As shown in
Step 101, receiving paging signaling from the base station.
The base station may include a plurality of cells providing services to a terminal device. According to different specific application scenarios, each cell may include a plurality of TRPs (Transmission Reception Point, or Transmit Receive Point), or a device communicating with a wireless terminal device through one or more sectors on an air interface in an access network, or other names. The base station related to the embodiments of the present disclosure may be a BTS (Base Transceiver Station) in GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) or CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access). The base station may also be a base station (NodeB) in WCDMA (Wideband Code Division Multiple Access), or an evolutional Node B (abbreviated as eNB or e-NodeB) in an LTE (long-term evolution) system, a 5G base station (abbreviated as gNB) in a 5G network architecture (next generation system), or a HeNB (Home evolved Node B), a relay node, a home base station (femto), a pico base station, etc.
In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the terminal device can receive the paging signaling sent by the base station.
Step 102, acquiring a paging cause information element in the paging signaling, where the paging cause information element is used to carry a paging cause.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the terminal device is provided with one communication card, the paging cause can be a cause for paging the one communication card; and when the terminal device is provided with multiple communication cards, the paging cause can be a cause for paging one of the multiple communication cards, such as a communication card in a non-connected state (that is, the paging signaling is for the communication card in the non-connected state in the terminal device).
For example, when a mobile phone number in the terminal device is paged, a reason for paging the mobile phone number can be marked, that is, a paging cause is marked. For example, the marked paging cause may be voice paging, data service download paging, system short message group-sending (i.e., short message system information) paging, etc.
The paging cause can be determined by at least one of following ways: the base station directly determines the paging cause through the terminal device, for example, the base station determines reasons for calling a certain mobile phone number through the terminal device; the base station acquires the paging cause through a core network, for example, the core network can directly inform the base station of the paging cause, or the base station can determine the paging cause by querying a data base of the core network; the base station can determine the paging cause by querying neighbor cells.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the paging signaling may include the paging cause information element, and the paging cause information element is used to carry the paging cause, that is, the paging cause information element can record the paging cause.
As an example, the paging signaling may include a paging record information element, a new information element (referred to as the paging cause information element in the embodiments of the present disclosure) can be added in the paging record information element to indicate the paging cause. For example, a pagingCause-r17 information element can be added in a PagingRecord information element to indicate the paging cause, where the pagingCause-r17 information element can indicate the paging cause through a way of enumerating.
As an example, the paging signaling may include:
ENUMERATED indicates an enumeration type, and within brackets behind ENUMERATED are specific examples of each type, that is, the paging signaling can include one of the enumeration types within the brackets, and OPTIONAL indicates that this field may not be presented in an actual paging signaling.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, after receiving the paging signaling, the terminal device can acquire the paging cause information element in the paging signaling.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, after acquiring the paging cause information element, the terminal device can determine paging capability of the base station according to the paging cause information element, where the paging capability of the base station indicates whether the base station is capable of sending the paging cause, so that the terminal device can perform subsequent actions or corresponding determinations according to the paging capability of the base station.
According to the method for distinguishing paging capability of a base station, the terminal device receives the paging signaling from the base station, and acquires the paging cause information element in the paging signaling, where the paging cause information element is used to carry a paging cause. In such way, even if the base station does not send the paging cause to the terminal device, the terminal device can still determine the paging capability of the base station according to the paging cause information element, so as to perform subsequent actions or corresponding determinations according to the paging capability of the base station.
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide another method for distinguishing paging capability of a base station, and

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the paging cause information element is used to carry a paging cause.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the paging cause may aim to a voice service, that is, the paging cause may be voice paging.
It shall be understood that, the paging cause may also aim to other services, such as data service download paging, system short message group-sending (i.e., short message system information) paging, etc., which is not limited by the present disclosure.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, steps 201 and 202 can be implemented through any manner in the embodiments of the present disclosure, which is not limited by the embodiment of the present disclosure, and will not be repeated here.
Step 203, in response to that the paging signaling does not include the paging cause information element, determining that the base station is not capable of sending the paging cause.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, if the base station does not support to send the paging cause, that is, the base station is not capable of sending the paging cause, the paging signaling sent to the terminal device by the base station may not include the paging cause, that is, the base station may not send the paging cause information element.
Thus, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, when the paging signaling does not include the paging cause information element, the terminal device can determine that the base station is not capable of sending the paging cause.
According to the method for distinguishing paging capability of a base station, the terminal device receives the paging signaling from the base station, and acquires the paging cause information element in the paging signaling, where the paging cause information element is used to carry a paging cause. In such way, even if the base station does not send the paging cause to the terminal device, the terminal device can still determine the paging capability of the base station according to the paging cause information element, so as to perform subsequent actions or corresponding determinations according to the paging capability of the base station.
It shall be noted that, the above implementations may be performed independently or in combination with each other, which is not limited by the embodiments of the present disclosure.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, steps 301 and 302 can be implemented through any manner in the embodiments of the present disclosure, which is not limited by the embodiment of the present disclosure, and will not be repeated here.
Step 303, determining whether the paging cause information element includes a preset identifier.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when determining that the paging signaling includes the paging cause information element, the terminal device can further determine whether the paging cause information element includes the preset identifier. That is, in the present disclosure, the preset identifier can be added in the paging cause information element to indicate paging capability of the base station.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, it can be determined that whether the preset identifier is presented at a preset position of the paging cause information element, and when the preset identifier is presented at the preset position, it can be determined that the paging cause information element includes the preset identifier.
As an example, the paging signaling may include a new information element including certain content, which is referred to as the paging cause information element in the embodiments of the present disclosure, and certain content included in the paging cause information element is taken as the preset identifier. For example, it is taken as an example that the preset position is a first reserved information “sparel” in the paging cause information element, the “sparel” can be defined as void, and the preset identifier can be the void.
Step 304, in response to that the paging cause information element includes the preset identifier, and the paging cause information element does not include the paging cause, determining that the base station is capable of sending the paging cause but does not send the paging cause.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the terminal device determines that the paging cause information element includes the preset identifier, and the paging cause information element does not include the paging cause, it can be determined that the base station is capable of sending the paging cause but does not send the paging cause.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when determining that the paging cause information element includes the paging cause, the terminal device can extract the paging cause in the paging cause information element, so as to perform subsequent actions (such as responding paging) according to the paging cause.
According to the method for distinguishing paging capability of a base station, the terminal device receives the paging signaling from the base station, and acquires the paging cause information element in the paging signaling, where the paging cause information element is used to carry a paging cause. In such way, even if the base station does not send the paging cause to the terminal device, the terminal device can still determine the paging capability of the base station according to the paging cause information element, so as to perform subsequent actions or corresponding determinations according to the paging capability of the base station.
It shall be noted that, the above implementations may be performed independently or in combination with each other, which is not limited by the embodiments of the present disclosure.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, steps 401 and 402 can be implemented through any manner in the embodiments of the present disclosure, which is not limited by the embodiment of the present disclosure, and will not be repeated here.
Step 403, in response to that the paging signaling does not include the paging cause information element, determining the paging capability of the base station according to received system information of the base station.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when determining that the paging signaling does not include the paging cause information element, the terminal device can determine the paging capability of the base station according to received system information of the base station. The system information is used to indicate whether the base station is capable of sending the paging cause.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when determining, according to the system information, that the base station is capable of sending the paging cause, and the paging signaling does not include the paging cause information element, the terminal device can determine that the base station is capable of sending the paging cause but does not send the paging cause.
As an example, the base station can send the system information to the terminal device, where the system information is used to indicate that the base station is capable of sending the paging cause, that is, the base station can inform its own capability of sending the paging cause through the system information. Correspondingly, after acquiring the system information sent by the base station, the terminal device can determine that the base station is capable of sending the paging cause but does not send the paging cause.
According to the method for distinguishing paging capability of a base station, the terminal device receives the paging signaling from the base station, and acquires the paging cause information element in the paging signaling, where the paging cause information element is used to carry a paging cause. In such way, even if the base station does not send the paging cause to the terminal device, the terminal device can still determine the paging capability of the base station according to the paging cause information element, so as to perform subsequent actions or corresponding determinations according to the paging capability of the base station.
It shall be noted that, the above implementations may be performed independently or in combination with each other, which is not limited by the embodiments of the present disclosure.

Step 504, in response to determining that the base station is capable of sending the paging cause but does not send the paging cause, sending paging cause request information to the base station, so as to further request the base station to send the paging cause.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when determining that the base station is capable of sending the paging cause but does not send the paging cause, the terminal device can send the paging cause request information to the base station, where the paging cause request information is used to request the base station to send the paging cause. In such way, a success rate for the terminal device to learn the paging cause can be improved, so that the terminal device can carry out subsequent actions (such as responding paging) based on the paging cause.
According to the method for distinguishing paging capability of a base station, the terminal device receives the paging signaling from the base station, and acquires the paging cause information element in the paging signaling, where the paging cause information element is used to carry a paging cause. In such way, even if the base station does not send the paging cause to the terminal device, the terminal device can still determine the paging capability of the base station according to the paging cause information element, so as to perform subsequent actions or corresponding determinations according to the paging capability of the base station.
It shall be noted that, the above implementations may be performed independently or in combination with each other, which is not limited by the embodiments of the present disclosure.
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide another method for distinguishing paging capability of a base station, and
As shown in
Step 601, receiving paging signaling from the base station.
Step 602, acquiring a paging cause information element in the paging signaling, where the paging cause information element is used to carry a paging cause.
Step 603, determining the paging capability of the base station according to the paging cause information element.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, steps 601 and 603 can be implemented through any manner in the embodiments of the present disclosure, which is not limited by the embodiment of the present disclosure, and will not be repeated here.
Step 604, in response to determining that the base station is capable of sending the paging cause but does not send the paging cause, determining that the paging signaling is for non-voice paging.
It shall be understood that, a paging instruction may aim for high-service-level paging (such as voice paging), or may aim for low-service-level paging (such as non-voice paging such as data service download paging and system short message information, etc.). Since the voice paging is of high importance, thus to improve service experience of a user, when the base station is capable of sending the paging cause, the base station can indicate the paging cause in the paging signaling, that is, the paging cause information element records the paging cause; and since non-voice paging is of low importance, to reduce signaling cost, when the base station is capable of sending the paging cause, the base station may not send the paging cause for the low-service-level paging, for example, the paging cause information element includes the preset identifier and does not include the paging cause.
Hence, in a possible implementation of the embodiment of the present disclosure, when determining that the base station is capable of sending the paging cause but does not send the paging cause, the terminal device can determine that the paging signaling is for non-voice paging. In such way, the terminal device can further distinguish or determine a reason why the base station does not send the paging cause, so as to perform subsequent operations according to the determined reason.
According to the method for distinguishing paging capability of a base station, the terminal device receives the paging signaling from the base station, and acquires the paging cause information element in the paging signaling, where the paging cause information element is used to carry a paging cause. In such way, even if the base station does not send the paging cause to the terminal device, the terminal device can still determine the paging capability of the base station according to the paging cause information element, so as to perform subsequent actions or corresponding determinations according to the paging capability of the base station.
It shall be noted that, the above implementations may be performed independently or in combination with each other, which is not limited by the embodiments of the present disclosure.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the base station can send the paging cause for a terminal device with multiple communication cards to the terminal device through the paging signaling.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the base station can send the paging cause to a communication card (such as a SIM card) that is able to or needs to receive the paging cause in the terminal device through the paging signaling.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, for an LTE system or an NR (New Radio) system, the base station can implement indication of the paging cause by modifying a PagingRecord information element. For example, the paging cause can be indicated by adding a new information element (such as a pagingCause-r17 information element) in the PagingRecord information element, where the paging cause can be indicated through a way of enumerating.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the base station does not support to send the paging cause, the base station will not send the new information element, that is, the paging signaling will not include the paging cause information element.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, if the base station supports to send the paging cause, but the base station does not send the paging cause, the base station can indicate its own paging capability through at least one of the following ways: the base station can send a new information element including certain content, for example, define sparel as void; the base station can inform that itself is capable of sending the paging cause through system information, but the base station will not send the new information element (i.e., the paging cause information element).
